Our beloved Stella Shouting Contest KICKS OFF our Festival on Sunday, March 23! Join us in Jackson Square for the annual competition to see who can best impress our judges with their rendition of Stanley Kowalski’s iconic line. Contestant signup begins at 1:30 and we take the first 25. We’re excited to have Bryan Batt as our emcee with Beth Bartley d’Amour and Todd d’Amour as our Stella and Stanley.
Plus, we’re once again making the Shouting Contest an awareness-raising and fundraising campaign for the New Orleans Family Justice Center, a partnership of agencies dedicated to ending domestic violence. The NOFJC provides access to free crisis services and shelter, legal aid, advocacy and case management, trauma counseling, and prevention education.
Sponsored by the Goldring Family Foundation.
Jackson Square, free and open to the public.
